Donald Trump has been elected the 47th president of the United States, an extraordinary comeback for a former president who refused to accept defeat four years ago, sparked a violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, was convicted of felony charges and survived two assassination attempts.

It's not just us, but the whole international community that is responsible for that

No. There is one country giving 17 Billion dollars in weaponry and aid to Israel. Don't blame the "international community" for the genocide being funded and armed by your party. Your own party is opposing the current resolutions in the UN to denounce this genocide.

Israel would quickly go the way of south africa without US support. Will anything make US democrats stop pointing fingers at other people, and start accepting blame for their own actions?

If you reread what I wrote, you'll see that I was not saying the international community was responsible for the genocide.

Israel would quickly go the way of south africa without US support.

This is nothing more than faith. Israel trades with many countries, including India, where anti-Muslim sentiment is very strong among the ruling Hindu nationalists. US contributions are only a small fraction of their total annual budget. All they would really lose irreplaceably is advanced weaponry.

Aaaand the racist finger-pointing resumes. Zero recognition for your genocidal party. I shouldn't be surprised.

Who was I pointing a finger at?
